Abstract
A study on the Roman road map in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula is proposed, chronologically contextualized between the end of the third century BC to the year 711 AD. Through the analysis of the written sources, as well as archaeological sources, highlighting in them the epigraphy, a corpus of cartographic data has been made through which to carry out historical research on the functioning of the roads in Hispania during the Antiquity, as well as in later times. Thanks to the multidisciplinary nature of the study, a comparison of classical and archaeological sources has been proposed, as well as the implementation of computer science in the transformation of technical data into spatial data through GIS software. The result aims to establish a new state of the question at the level of historiographic and spatial knowledge, from which new working hypotheses can be proposed on the ancient road network in the Southeast peninsular, as well as the relationships between different municipia through these infrastructures.
